I really liked this book, especially the beginning chapters where the author focuses on opening the heart and releasing to get rid of blockage in your heart to get rid of bad experiences and not being stuck with them for long time. To stop thinking too much and talking to yourself. The author suggests that our brain is definitely designed for a more productive and valuable task rather than just thinking to yourself and being obsessed with reviewing events and bad experiences.However, I think the book is redundant in many parts, and the author could've compressed it a bit to make it more pleasant. If you skip the final chapter you haven't missed anything.Recommended for those who want to learn more about self.

Reading this book has giving me a new appreciation for life. It details and explains what consciousness is–your true self. The Soul, Spirit, Atman, our true Self sits beyond our human emotions, feelings and daily observable objects. The book has taught me to appreciate and enjoy the present moment, regardless of the ups and downs. Well written and understandable. Five stars.

Without doubt a game changer. You can read something, and then you can know it. Somehow, this book does both. Audible is awesome, can go for a run listening to it or sleep to it subliminally

Parts of the book go quite spiritual, i.e completely objective which is not my preference but he is absolutely spot on with nearly everything he says, the man is a genius, the book will change your life.

The beauty of this book is in its simplicity, it is written to be understood and the metaphors used to describe the various states and aspects make all the difference. If you find yourself 'looking' for answers or swinging from extremes this is the book for you. You'll be given ways to find your center and balance - its life changing.

Yep. He will challenge your idea that spiritual 'attainment' is by its nature, difficult. I am reminded of the biblical quote "Come as a little child', and this seems to be how Michael has gained his deep understanding of how to free oneself of our 'normal' limited lifestyle. Thank you Michael!
